Restaurants near Gooch Park

Eating at Flight is always a treat. The food is exceptional and the variety is always appealing. It is also our first choice for special occasions. The service is top notch and the location, in the heart of downtown, is fun.

When I noticed that the River Terrace had re-opened, I was excited to try it when I was going to be in Memphis for Christmas. I was thrilled that I could get a table on Dec 26, to celebrate my 60th birthday. The last time I dined at the restaurant was in December of 1999, for New Year's Eve. Prior, I was part of the original staff that opened the restaurant in 1982. It was great to see the place re-modeled, re-furbished, and thriving. The view is among the very best in the city. The food was excellent. I had the Blacked Catfish...WOW! The service was very good. I had a nice conversation with the manager and shared a few memories about the old place. I highly recommend Mahagony River Terrace.

Where to begin…Hannah our sever was great. We ordered food to dine in and food for Togo and both parts of our order were spot on. After a mixup with my drink, the restaurant was happy to comp it and continued to provide great service. We enjoyed the salmon, the chicken, truffle mashed potatoes, glazed carrots and the cheesecake. To-go we ordered the lobster pasta, the wedge salad, collard greens, mashed potatoes, corn brûlée and carrots along with the praline dessert. We were satisfied.

We love the atmosphere and food at the Beauty Shop. Went twice over the holidays and it didn’t disappoint! Fun place to meet friends for lunch or dinner.

It was our first time there and it was absolutely great!!! Our waiter, Caleb, was wonderful and very attentive. The food was spectacular!!! We’ll definitely recommend it to friends and hope to return in the future!!! It was most definitely worth the money.
